  1. A few of our sunflowers from the summer successfully seeded; they’re still growing well. Hoping we can get a few blooms out of this generation before it gets too cold. We’ve never had sunflowers last this far into the year before!
  2. There's really only one match I can find with a comparable El Nino of this strength with a November this dry, and that's 1965. Although 65-66 was a good winter. The next best match would be 1991. That was definitely not a good winter lol This was just using BWI data.
  3. Smelling the wildfire smoke all around Calvert today… it’s a very distinct smell that I learned over the summer.
  4. That post wasn't worded well, sorry. I meant it was a bad sign for the winter that I only have 0.07" so far this month, not because it's been a dry year. I remember looking at some of the region's least snowiest years and finding a pretty good correlation to dry Novembers that preceded. Since you mentioned 2002: the November totals for DCA and BWI were 4.34" and 3.73" respectively, both above average. Of course we may pick up in the second half of the month; but I'm concerned.
  5. I got a whopping total of 0.07” for that system, which is also my monthly total. This is looking like a lock now for driest year since I moved to Prince Frederick a decade ago. Not a good sign for winter IMHO
  6. This is around the time the November pump-and-dump scam starts. Long range will start showing some weenie solution (either 1996 or 2010, depending on whatever ENSO you’re in). People start posting mega forecasts at all-time highs, or rapidly revising upwards… then the Pacific puke (or whatever) starts showing up after Thanksgiving, and Rodney will have to sift through the spreadsheet on December 1 to figure out who quietly revised back downwards. Eta: Exhibit A in post below
  7. I remember in Oct. 2009 we had the back-to-back mid-October coastals, both with big rain totals and four consecutive record lowest maxes at BWI. This pattern literally reloaded in February. If I saw something like that happen this month, I might get excited for the 09-10 analogs being thrown about lately.
  8. Yep I've been saying it for months... this Nino isn't acting like a Nino.
  9. BWI: 2.3" DCA: 1.1" IAD: 3.7" RIC: 0.4" Tiebreaker SBY: 0.2"
  10. That would be well below climo for most of Southern MD, but it would be much more than I've gotten in 3 of the last 4 winters, so there's that I guess.
  11. October is the best weather month in this region by far.
  12. The Great Drizzlefest of 2023 has returned. Monthly total 8.41"
  13. My monthly total is up to 8.19". Hoping I can heavy drizzle my way to double digits this month.
  14. We’re doing the heavy mist not on radar thing again IMBY
  15. We had a lull this morning but the heavy rain has resumed. Storm total is 1.73” so far.
  16. You need to reel this one in, but slowly; get me to a cat 1 inb4 landfall.
  17. Based on my prior experience with Isaias, I have a feeling this is going to overperform IMBY.
  18. BWI's first half of the year was second-hottest behind 2012, and that was with a below-average May and June. July and August were above-average, and we may have a serious shot at hottest September ever, so I'm issuing a Hottest Year on Record Watch for BWI.
  19. You know we’re in trouble when even I’ve had to start watering my lawn now. I just assumed IMBY was going to get approximately 40 feet of rain like I do every year lol
